Magnetic and Optical Properties of a Two-dimensional Crystal Now under Control

Scientists are working to control materials precisely and down to the atomic level and to combine them with each other. The objective is to produce new hybrid structures that are multifunctional and suitable for use in both optoelectronics and magnetism, for example. An international team of researchers from Sheffield, Clermont-Ferrand, Tokyo and Dortmund has now succeeded in creating such a system, which opens up completely new possibilities, above all for optically controlled magnetism. Their findings were published recently in the renowned journal Nature Photonics.
